Development of Molecular Marker to Detect Citrus Melanose Caused by from Citrus Melanose-like Symptoms [PDF]
The Plant Pathology Journal, 2021 It is difficult to distinguish melanose and melanoses-like symptoms with the naked eye because they appear similar. To accurately detect melanose symptoms caused by Diaporthe citri from melanose-like symptoms, we developed PCR-based specific primers ...

Identification of Candidate Heat-Tolerance Genes in Maize by Integrating Linkage and Transcriptomic Analyses [PDF]
PlantsWith global warming, high-temperature stress has become a primary abiotic factor limiting maize yield and quality. Exposure to heat stress induces sunscald on maize leaves, which severely impairs photosynthesis and ultimately leads to yield reduction. In
